As far as speed limits on the highway , THERE'S NOT 150' RULE THERE. Cars have a 10 to 12 foot lane and can pass at a closing speed of 110 mph on a two lane 55 mph highway. I have yet to see a deer jump out in front of a boat.
Finally , if i didn't like my neighborhood , I'd move. You said yourself it's the biggest lake east of the Mississippi.
LIforrelaxin has the right attitude. Anything else will just give you ulcers and a lot of other people a P.I.A.  |
I prefer to stay in my neighborhood and see to it that standards of safety, environment and water purity are maintained. It's the people that are introducing faster, larger, noisier, polluting boats that must be kept from moving into this neighborhood.
Five states have banned recreational power boating on all drinking water sources. Many more have horsepower limits on their drinking water sources. Mass has a 10 hp limit on reservoirs. Even with MTBE free gas being sold on the lake it can be introduced by trailer boaters. MBTE attacks the central nervous system. And there are other pollutants in gas besides MTBE.
NH is one of the few states that allow unrestricted power boating on drinking water sources.
